Abstract

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a novel nucleic acid amplification technique, which can be efficiently amplified at constant temperature by using a Bst DNA polymerase with high chain replacement activity. Compared with traditional nucleic acid amplification technology, this technique has the advantages of high sensitivity, strong specificity, simple operation and low detection cost. In the outbreak of COVID-19 in recent years, LAMP technology has been successfully used to develop rapid domestic COVID-19 nucleic acid detection kits with the above advantages, which can achieve rapid detection of COVID-19 in only 20min, greatly improving the convenience and immediacy of nucleic acid detection. In this paper, the principle and development of LAMP technology were summarized by using databases such as NCBI PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, etc., focusing on the application of LAMP technology in novel coronavirus detection, and the future development direction of LAMP technology was analyzed by describing the latest LAMP technology.
